May 16th is Love a Tree Day 🌳
❤️ And we know that trees love mulch.

A proper mulch ring 2–3 feet out from the base
🌳keeps moisture in
🌳regulates soil temp
🌳and protects roots from lawn equipment damage

❌ Don't pile mulch against the trunk (that's called volcano mulching and it slowly kills trees 👎🏻)

✅ Spread it flat
✅ 3" deep

Your trees will thank you for years. 🙌

Here's the number most people get wrong: 3 inches

That's the sweet spot for mulch depth in your beds.

Too thin and weeds win.
Too thick and your plants can't breathe.
